Only  two  out  of  five  Japanese  have  heard  of  Christianity 


'^^Made  in  Japan 

Politics,  schools,  and  ideas  for  the 
entire  East  are  made  in  Japan.  Shall 
these  products  help  or  hinder  modern 
civilization  ? 

The  answer  depends  upon  how  closely 
Japan  can  be  allied  with  Christianity. 

Therefore  Christian  missionaries  must 
keep  up  their  evangelistic  work  in  Japan, 
for  as  yet  only  two  out  of  every  five 
persons  have  ever  heard  the  Gospel. 

In  Korea,  too,  evangelistic  work  must 
go  on,  for  this  is  an  age  of  great  oppor- 
tunity there.  The  little  nation,  deprived 
of  its  political  independence,  is  turning 
to  Christianity  and  promises  to  become 
the  “first  fruits”  of  the  Orient.

Tke  Land  of  Model  ScLools 

Japan  is  a land  where  nobody  plays 
hookey;  ninety-eight  per  cent  of  the 
children  are  in  school,  and  Japan  is  ex- 
tending her  educational  system  into 
Korea  and  is  teaching  China’s  teachers. 

But  the  Japanese  concern  themselves 
entirely  with  the  three  R’s  and  give  no 
attention  to  moral  teaching. 

That  is  the  reason  mission  schools  are 
needed  in  Japan  and  Korea.  They 
alone  place  proper  emphasis  upon 
character-building,  and  they  alone  are 
capable  of  training  the  future  leaders 
of  the  church. 

That  mission  schools  do  succeed  in 
placing  the  imprint  of  religion  upon 
their  pupils,  is  shown  by  the  large 
percentage  of  scholars  who  become 
Christians.

Casting  tke  Devils  Out  of  Korea 

The  medical  missionary  has  cast 
many  devils  out  of  Korea,  for  the  old 
idea  of  the  country  was  that  evil  spirits 
caused  all  sickness. 

The  chief  requisite  of  the  Korean 
doctor  was  that  he  should  know  each 
of  the  three  hundred  places  in  the  human 
body  into  which  a needle  might  be  stuck 
to  force  the  escape  of  the  disease  devils. 

Now  mission  doctors  are  showing  that 
disease  is  more  closely  connected  with 
dirt  than  with  devils,  but  the  supply  of 
physicians  is  still  inadequate,  and  some 
days  one  doctor  has  to  treat  a hundred 
clinic  patients.
